New survey data from Ashley Madison, the leading dating website that helps married people have affairs, has shown people with certain careers are more likely to be unfaithful to their partners. They asked 1,074 members of Ashley Madison to fill out a survey about their jobs.

Despite straying from their partners, respondents of the survey had a different attitude towards their careers. nearly half (44%) said they never switch jobs, and those who did said they only did it once every 10 years.

Here were the top 12 careers for infidelity from the survey, for both men and women:

4. Women — Finance

3. Men and women — Entrepreneurs

Being an entrepreneur was the third most popular career choice for both male and female cheaters. One reason for this could be because entrepreneurial people like things their own way and on their own terms, and so "are likely to take charge of their sex life the way they do their business," the survey suggested.

2. Women — Education

1. Men — Trades

Men who worked in trades took the top spot for cheating. They made up 29% of male respondents.

"Jobs in trades often mean irregular hours and are often structured in shift work meaning it's easier for men to fly under the radar when it comes to sneaking around with an affair partner," said Isabella Mise, Director of Communications at Ashley Madison.

The number 1 spot for women was taken by the medical profession. 23% of women were doctors or nurses.

"A combination of long hours of potential stress mixed with a natural reaction to stress just might be the reason these women in the medical profession seek out an affair," said Mise.
